Need SuperGen SX info

[Dr_Righteous]

Just won a SuperGen SX genlock on eBay! How sweet is that?!

Question is, does this thing require a power supply or does it get power from the video connector?

And does anyone have, or know where I can find, the software and manuals for it? I'm told they don't come with this one.

Thanks!

I've used the SGSX before, but that was like 12 years ago when I worked in a public-access TV station.

My primary use will be pumping my video output into my Pinnacle AV/DV card via S-Video, hopefully giving me a bit better display than my aging C=1950.

Of course the bonus of titling and chroma-key could prove interesting in and of itself. Hmm, now I need some thick blue fabric to hang on the wall! :-D

I could swear I remember doing chroma-key with it... Just reversing the disolves. Hell, it's been 12 years since I've messed with it, I could be mistaken... Or maybe it wasn't an SGSX. *shrug*

Really, I'm just planning on using it as a monitor replacement. My Pinnacle AV/DV does everything I need it to... Namely analog capture, since I use an S-VHS camera. Just need to get a MUCH bigger harddrive soon.
